A Specimen Letter
Dear sir：
Your letter of the 5th March came to hand yesterday.
Accordingly, we have lost no time in getting in touch with our factories and urged them to hasten their delivery. Owing to heavy commitments, they cannot advance delivery from June to April but they understand perfectly that July is the selling season for shirts in your market. They eventually agree to make delivery in mid-May.
We have booked the shipping space on S.S.. Peace, which is scheduled to sail on or about the 20th of May. We shall send you an email as soon as the loading is completed.
Yours faithfully
National Textiles I/E Corp.
貴方三月五日來函昨日收悉。
據此，我們立即與廠方聯系，催促他們趕快交貨。由于交貨任務繁重，他們不能把交貨日期從六月份提前到四月份。但是他們非常清楚七月份是貴方市場襯衣的銷售季節，故最終他們同意五月中旬交貨。
我們已訂妥“和平輪”的艙位，預計五月二十日左右開航。一旦裝貨完畢，我們即發電子郵件告知貴方。
